^a -5.2% like-for-like and at constant exchange rates, at end-March (-5.8% for Media and -2.7% for Studio TF1 like-for-like)

^b Exceptional corporate income tax contribution levied on French companies

^c Includes advertising revenue from TF1+, TF1info.fr and addressable TV, along with revenue from subscriptions (TF1+ Premium) and micropayments

Results for the first quarter

The TF1 group’s consolidated revenue amounted to €472 million in the first quarter of 2026, down 9.3% year on year and down 5.2% like-for-like and at constant exchange rates. Almost half of the decline in the Media segment (revenue down 10.1% year on year to €414 million) was due to scope effects stemming from disposals completed in 2025. The remainder resulted from an advertising market that remained subdued, albeit showing a slight improvement compared with the fourth quarter of 2025. Studio TF1’s revenue totalled €58 million, almost unchanged year on year (down €2 million).

Current operating profit from activities (COPA) amounted to €13 million, down €30 million year on year, primarily reflecting the decline in linear advertising revenue, which is a key contributor to profitability. Margin from activities was 2.8%.

Operating profit totalled €9 million. That figure includes around €2 million in amortisation charges relating to intangible assets arising from the JPG acquisition, and €2 million in non-recurring expenses connected with the Group’s plan to accelerate its digital development.

Net profit attributable to the Group excluding the exceptional tax surcharge was €7 million, down €19 million year on year. France’s 2026 Finance Bill had an adverse impact of €3 million (mainly relating to 2025).

Net cash amounted to €565 million at end-March 2026, up €6 million year on year.

Analysis by segment

Media

Audience ratings¹

In the first quarter of 2026, despite a highly competitive environment (including Winter Olympics), the TF1 group maintained its leadership in its commercial targets and even made progress in the 4+ and W<50PDM targets, where its audience share rose 0.2 points year on year.

The TF1 channel stood out with its unique editorial performance in the French market, delivering strong audiences in all genres: entertainment with La Ballade des Enfoirés (7.9 million viewers), sport with the Six Nations Championship (peak audience of 7.3 million for the Wales-France match), and drama with Le Diplôme (5.0 million viewers). The channel claimed 25 of the 30 best viewing figures in the 25-49 commercial target.

As a result, TF1 maintained its leadership across all targets², with a significant lead over its main commercial competitor:

• ahead by 10.3 points in the W<50PDM target, with an audience share of 22.3%;
• ahead by 8.1 points in the Individuals aged 25-49 target, with an audience share of 19.6%.

The Group’s news offering, which plays an essential role in the democratic debate, further strengthened its position amid heightened international news flow:

• LCI recorded its best month ever in March, with a 3.2% audience share in the 4+ target;
• The newly launched extension to TF1’s morning show Bonjour ! (Bonjour ! Avec vous) allowed the Group to double its audience share in this time slot, at limited cost.

TF1+

• Leveraging its premium linear programming, TF1+ attracted 41 million monthly streamers on average in the first quarter of 2026, up from 38 million per month on average in 2025. Overall, streamers watched 285 million hours of content on TF1+ during the quarter according to Médiamétrie. Based on site-centric figures³, consumption rose by 9% year on year.
• Micropayments offers continued to gain traction, supported in particular by their progressive rollout across telecom operators’ set‑top boxes.

• Revenue in the Media segment totalled €414 million in the first quarter of 2026, down 10.1% year on year and down 5.8% like-for-like:
  • Advertising revenue fell by 7.1% year on year to €337 million. The structural decline in the linear advertising market has been exacerbated by advertisers’ wait-and-see approach in a particularly unstable environment since the fourth quarter of 2025, with the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East since early March representing another factor of volatility. However, the Group’s ad sales house increased its market share, showing the appeal of its commercial offering. The launch of TF1 Prime⁴ at the start of the year enabled the Group to drive greater value from TF1’s premium prime‑time inventory, highlighting its unrivalled standing among advertisers. Despite the challenging environment, and two years after its launch, TF1+’s advertising revenue maintained a strong growth rate of over 20% year on year, reaching €49 million in the first quarter. The Group’s digital revenue, which also includes advertising revenue from TF1info.fr and addressable TV, along with revenue from subscriptions (TF1+ Premium) and micropayments, amounted to €60 million, up 17.5% year on year.
  • Media revenue excluding advertising amounted to €78 million, down 21% but stable excluding scope effects, which mainly arose from the disposals of My Little Paris and Play Two in 2025.

• Programming costs were €222 million in the first quarter of 2026, broadly stable year on year. They reflect the Group’s efforts to maintain premium programming in order to support the launch of the new segmentation of the advertising offering (TF1 Prime/TF1 Reach), notably with the broadcast of nine Six Nations Championship matches.
• The Media segment reported current operating profit from activities of €16 million, affected by the sharp decrease in linear advertising revenue. Margin from activities in the Media segment thus came to 3.9%.

Studio TF1

• In the first quarter of 2026, Studio TF1’s revenue was broadly stable year on year at €58 million (down €2 million). In line with its strategic roadmap, Studio TF1 continued deliveries to its long-standing partners in France (new episodes of A Priori for France Télévisions), while pursuing its international collaborations (Hunting Alice Bell for Channel 4 and the third season of Teachers for Channel 5, both in the United Kingdom) and particularly its partnerships with streaming platforms to diversify its client mix (Day One for Amazon).
• Studio TF1’s current operating profit from activities was -€3 million in the first quarter of 2026, close to the level of the previous year.

Financial position

At the end of March 2026, the TF1 group had a solid financial position, with net cash of €565 million, up €6 million year on year.

Year-to-date, net cash position has increased by €51 million, mainly reflecting free cash flow of €9 million before changes in working capital and €54 million after changes in working capital.

Governance

At the General Meeting of 16 April 2026, shareholders voted to appoint Cyril Bouygues as Director for a three-year term, replacing Olivier Bouygues, whose term of office expired at the close of the General Meeting. Cyril Bouygues will bring to TF1’s Board of Directors all of the experience he has gained through his roles as Chief Executive Officer and then Chairman of Heling, along with the strategic expertise he has developed in particular as Director of Strategy at both Investaq Energie and Heling.

TF1’s Board of Directors includes three independent directors, a proportion of 37.5% (higher than the one-third minimum recommended by the Afep-Medef code), and four female members, a proportion of 55% (higher than the 40% minimum required by the French Commercial Code)⁵.

Outlook

In the Media segment, the TF1 group will continue to offer the best array of free, family-oriented and serialised entertainment. The iconic franchises Koh-Lanta, The Voice and Mask Singer, which have large digital audiences and resonate in particular with young targets, will be among the highlights of the second quarter of 2026, along with dramas including the new event mini-series L’Été 36.

The Group will also offer a wide range of sports throughout the year, including the inaugural Nations Championship (rugby), French national football team friendlies, and the Women’s Basketball World Cup.

In 2026, the Group’s priorities for its Media segment are to:

• Launch of a dedicated journey for SMEs and commercial networks from April on the new TF1 Ad Manager platform, with the aim of addressing the mid-tail market segment.
• Ramp up micropayments, which are being gradually rolled out in telecom operators’ set-top boxes, and implement integrated payment solutions to streamline the purchase experience.
• Extend the distribution of the Group’s content, with the groundbreaking agreement signed with Netflix coming into force in the summer.

For Studio TF1, activity will be skewed towards the second half of the year, as it has been in previous years, particularly in connection with Studio TF1 America’s delivery schedule⁶.

Furthermore, 2026 marks the start of the new theatrical distribution activity, with four films already scheduled, including the Jean Moulin biopic starring Gilles Lellouche, which has been added to the Competition line-up of the Cannes Film Festival. This is a key milestone for the Group, allowing Studio TF1 to support productions from development to theatrical release.

2026 targets maintained, in a context of limited visibility

Capitalising on its strategy, on its new digital initiatives and on its solid financial position, the Group’s targets are as follows:

• Strong double-digit revenue growth in digital in 2026;
• Aim for a growing dividend policy in the coming years.

Against a backdrop of rapidly changing consumption habits and a persistently unstable macroeconomic and political environment, the linear advertising market remains under strong pressure in 2026.

During this digital transition phase, the Group intends to maintain a mid-to-high single‑digit margin from activities before capital gains in 2026, subject to the evolution of the linear market.
